New Adventures

Sorry it has taken me so long to update on our trip to Oklahoma. It was a fabulous trip...the best trip we have taken yet!!! We left Saturday evening around 6:30pm and didn't arrive in Oklahoma City until 1:30am...yes it is a long drive, but Maddox did amazing!! He laughed and talked and played in the car and he eventually fell sound asleep....ahhh...makes those six hours bearable!!! I was worried since he slept in the car he would wake up when we arrived at Grandma and Grandpa's house; however, Brad went inside, set up the handy pack-n-play, tip-toed ever so quietly through the house, making sure we did not breathe too loudly or make any sudden movements, placed him ever so gently in the pack-n-play, made sure he could feel his faithful companion Raffie and he was fast asleep for the remainder of the night!! OH sweet success!!

We had an eventful Sunday as we went to visit Brad's Grandma Jo and we played outside all day!! Maddox rode the riding lawn mower with Brad and Grandpa and he LOVED it (although, he never cracks a smile the entire time...he will just cry if you try to take him off)




We then went to Brad's Aunt and Uncle's house and hung out there for a while. Maddox was so exhausted from playing outside all morning, he went down super easy for a quick nap to gain some much needed energy for the next big adventure....fishing!! He loved it. They have a pond outside their house with lots of fish....Maddox, Brad and Grandpa were able to catch several which Maddox greatly enjoyed!






Monday we had another fun filled day at the ZOO!!! Although it was super HOT, we had a great time and once again, Maddox did fantastic! He His favorite part were the sea lions and all the fish...I do believe next time we visit we will go to an aquarium...this boy loves fish!!! The funniest part was watching Maddox stare so intently at the fish as they swam by, then pat his leg like he does to call the dog....he was trying to "call" the fish back to him when they swam by...it was so funny!!!
